Kevin Owens is a miserable, asskicking and self-interested curmudgeon who only fights for prizes and family. Thus, he has possibly the best-defined character in WWE. Also, he's another in a line of new WWE performers who can seemingly both do everything while also innovating maneuvers never seen in WWE before. Within a nine-month span, Owens has won the NXT Championship, defeated face of the WWE John Cena and had a number of incredible matches, too. It's only a matter of time if/when Owens is allowed to turn the corner in WWE and actually ramp up his intensity. Owens' story started hot, but has yet to explode. Expect that relatively soon.
